Background
In an interview with The Sun in December 2008, lead singer Michael Angelakos explained: "Originally [the EP] was a Valentine's gift for my girlfriend that was never supposed to go beyond her ears. She put up with a lot of my shit and was a saint for it and that is the theme of a lot of the EP."[12] The tracks "Better Things" and "Sleepyhead" were added for the commercial release of the EP.[13] "Sleepyhead" was eventually included on Passion Pit's full-length debut album Manners (2009); Angelakos told The Sun that "[t]he only reason we put 'Sleepyhead' on the album is because it's a beautiful song and we had it mastered. Nothing on Chunk Of Change was mastered, so we opened it up a bit in the mix and it was a great way of seeing the song in another light."[14]
